  • More than 300 people have reportedly fallen ill with the strange virus, named as Dinga Dinga by locals in the African country's Bundibugyo district.

A mysterious virus in the UK has left hundreds of people, predominantly women, with severe neurological symptoms including uncontrollable shaking and an inability to walk. This condition, which has baffled medical professionals, primarily affects individuals in their 30s and 40s. Symptoms include not only shaking but also paralysis, cognitive issues, and severe fatigue. The virus seems to target the central nervous system, leading to a range of debilitating effects. Despite extensive testing, the exact cause remains unknown, with some speculation pointing towards an autoimmune response triggered by a viral infection. The affected individuals often experience a sudden onset of symptoms, which can be triggered by physical or emotional stress. This has led to significant lifestyle changes for those impacted, with many unable to work or perform daily activities, highlighting a pressing need for further research and treatment options.
